Dreams about Pets

Forgetting to feed fish and panicking

This is a recurring dream of me forgetting to feed my fish for long periods of time and when I notice them they look fine, but I know I need to take care of them and feed them. In my mind I cant believe they are not dead and panic to feed them anything until the morning when I can buy fish food.

This dream vision about forgetting to feed your fish could be an indication of an outstanding issue, task or need you are failing to take care of or address appropriately. The recurring nature of this dream is a strong reminder to get these things resolved in a timely manner in order to come to terms with your inner voice which is telling you to follow through with your obligations and responsibilities. You may also go through episodes in your life when you tend to postpone important tasks to a later day even though you could be feeling guilty about your tendency to procrastinate.

A dog shot and dying

My pet dog got shot. I hold him in my arms. I searched for help. No one noticed. He died in my arms. I cried a lot.

This dream would not necessarily contain negative connotations, but be about things you should perhaps pay attention in your waking life. Dreaming about your pet dog dying as a result of being shot by someone could be a reflection of your growing concern about your safety and security of your home. This could be the result of recent accumulation of some valuable possessions which you are afraid could be stolen or taken away from you somehow. You are subconsciously looking for possible ways to protect and safeguard your material possessions, regardless of the fact whether it is warranted or something you are only imagining could happen.

Discovering cat skulls in the sink and being disgusted

I hope someone can help me with this interpretation because I really feel like it's something important... I had a dream of 2 cat skulls in a sink... I was trying to put them in the garbage disposal... The first small one fit, and the larger one did not. In my dream I was cringing, grossed out and looking away, however it needed to be done for some reason. I contemplated what it could have been about, I use to own 2 cats and they passed away, a lot of times I blame myself for it. But the original direction of my dream was about love. Can't find a similar interpretation anywhere, please help me.

You did not provide any symbols or elements related to the other part of the dream about love, so based on the imagery you have experienced about coming across cat skulls in the sink, it could reflect your strong resolve not to have any more pets, possibly not just cats but any kind, after the pets you had in the past had passed away. Additionally, this dream vision could also represent your strong aversion and utter disgust related to something you could have witnessed inside your household or someone else's house, most likely related to kitchen, food or the way this food was prepared, served or disposed of afterwards.

A pet dog causing suffocation

I'm a girl. Last night I had a dream where I woke up in my bed and my dog, Peaches, was sitting at the end of the bed. She looked happy. I blinked, and she was beside the bed. I blinked again, she was next to me. I blinked again, and her arms were over my shoulders like when she hugs me. But I was suffocating and she wouldn't get off. I was screaming too. After that I woke up.

This dream vision could have two possible meanings. On of them is related to the environment you sleep in, the room could be too hot, dusty or your bed could have a lot of hair on it which prevents you from breathing when you sleep. A dream with animals represented by dogs could also be a sign of having a person or people close to you who bring a lot of havoc in your life or someone you cannot distance yourself from in your life because of the emotional attachment. They could be exerting a lot of influence on you and are difficult to break free from.

Looking for water for a goldfish

I am seeking water for a beautiful goldfish that I have in a brown paper bag. It needs water to stay alive. I am surrounded by beautiful lakes and streams, but cannot seem to find the right place for the fish. I search and search and wake up without finding a place. I am living awake and telling myself that the fish is alive.

The image of a goldfish or fish golden in color in your dream predicts that something you have been expecting to happen or have planned will not come true. Most likely it is because the time has now passed since you were trying to make things work in your favor, but hesitated or did not act quick enough. Another reason could also be that you chose to apply your efforts in a wrong place or while relying on someone who was pursuing their own goals and therefore took over your dreams and aspirations.

A pet disappearing while in a foreign country

I was in a foreign country and mt beloved pet dog slipped out of her harness, she ran off and although I chased her I couldn't find her, I kept calling out her name and crying, but no matter how hard I looked for her, I just couldn't find her anywhere.

Dreaming about trying to locate or search for a lost dog that has been missing for quite some time is a sign of upcoming hardships. It means you will soon face some troubles or threatening circumstances that you will have to deal with for a while. At the same time, you saw yourself in a foreign country, which could also mean soon going through some serious ordeal or participating in an activity which you suspect you would not be able to complete. This same vision could also reflect your tendency to place the blame on yourself first for something you cannot complete or accomplish at the moment.

Fish in a fish tank dying

I was going on holiday with my sister, so I fed my fish and still said to my sister "I hope they don't die". Then I saw my gold fish dead and noticed a few of my other fish swimming outside the tank, as I caught them by hand and put them back in water. Some of them started dying.

Trying to catch fish and put them back inside their tank is a sign that means you are about to go through a period of great difficulties or be given a series of tasks that are troublesome. The dying fish are also a rather negative image, indicating health issues or an accident that inhibits your ability to live a normal life. Finally, the image of the dead goldfish also stands out, suggesting some plan or goal you have been working toward is not likely to come true. This vision seems to suggest becoming incapacitated in some way, causing trouble in your life and preventing you from doing the things you want to do. You may want to take special care with your health to offset or prevent yourself from becoming ill.

Having an alligator and a bunny for pets

An alligator attacked a white rabbit, both were my pets.

White rabbits usually symbolize other people's devotion to you. These people, usually family and friends, would do anything for you because you have supported them in their time(s) of need and have been a dedicated companion for many years. However, the image of the alligator represents the rise of a powerful adversary in your life. This rival is likely to interfere heavily in your doings, causing havoc and disrupting your relationships. While the outcome of this vision is unclear, seeing the alligator attack the white rabbit suggests this rival may go after your loved ones in an attempt to get to you. You should try to anticipate these events in order to protect those you care about most and, ideally, prevent any further negative outcomes.

Trying to catch a pet bird and its wings falling off

I tried to capture my African Gray and I was chasing him. When I caught him, his wings fell off. I cried.

Seeing yourself trying to catch a parrot in a dream, whether it belongs to you or someone else, reflects your tendency to immerse yourself in interaction with other people which proves to be pointless and a waste of your time. You could be surrounded by individuals, including close friends, who may be forcing you to spend your time with them idling and with no particular purpose in mind. At the same time, seeing this bird lose its wings may indicate your slowly decreasing hope and faith regarding a person or a thing that you truly value. Perhaps you are just starting to realize that it is high time to build new, more meaningful relationships or acquire friends who will share your interests and fuel your ambitions.

Reuniting with an old pet horse from the past

I went to a house from my childhood and in the field was my beloved horse. I screamed "Misty" and saw her perking her head up and came running to me. I held her like she was a baby in my arms. I couldn't believe she was still alive after all these years. I told my son I was going to ask the owners if I could have her and I was even willing to give up one of my other pets to keep her.

Dreaming about interacting with the horse you had in the past could mean that you would soon be pleasantly surprised. In particular, you may be positively impressed by your own sympathetic and generous action of helping and supporting someone who is in need of help or supporting an important cause or initiative. You could also be facing several options to show your generosity and kindness, but remain unsure as to whom to help or where to apply your efforts. The notion of trading your other pets for the horse you are fond of so much points to the state of indecisiveness you are in, or simply taking the time to plan your further actions.

Concerned about having a crocodile for a pet

Having a crocodile as a pet and considering killing it before it becomes too large and can hurt myself or someone else.

Having a pet crocodile is symbolic of forgiveness, particularly in relation to someone who has wronged you. This sign suggests, however, that this person may or may not take your feelings seriously, meaning they may upset you again. In this case, your consideration of whether or not you should kill the crocodile makes perfect sense, representing your hesitation to forgive and forget. You may need to take more time to think about what value this person adds to your life and act accordingly.

A pet in the field with the moon changing shapes

My pet snowy was in the middle of a field. He was under the full moon and he went away on the crescent moon.

Symbolically, seeing the moon transforming from full to crescent is not a very positive sign to see in a dream. The crescent moon portends alienation, separation or having to say goodbye. In the light of coming across this imagery in your dream, you could be sensing upcoming separation from your pet, either because of losing him temporarily, or due to some more serious circumstances or causes.

A cat getting killed while traveling overseas

I traveled to Denmark with my boyfriend and one of our cats, Willy. While there, I met with a cousin I didn't recognize and our cat was outside browsing. He got mauled to death and was severed into two parts. I sobbed and sobbed while my boyfriend put the face and chest half of Willy into a garbage bag. Then I woke up.

Assuming that you were traveling to a foreign country, somewhere you do not permanently live, in this dream, this first vision could serve as an indication that you are becoming a very important and irreplaceable part of someone's life. However, the accident which happened to your pet while traveling can also be an indication of your fears and uneasy feelings related to something you have done in the past, including some backfire resulting from romantic or sexual activities you were involved in. Alternatively, you could have a tendency to place a great deal of blame on yourself, when something goes wrong or threatens your relationship with the boyfriend, who was also present in your dream, failing to recognize other possible causes of such downfalls.

Walking a dog and running into a group of other dogs

I was walking my two dogs, as we turned a corner, there was a group of different breeds of dogs, one black dog came around me from my right, behind me to my left and when I looked down I was no longer holding the leashes, I was holding a stick (in my left hand) and I kept the dog away with it (not hitting, just guiding it) and my right hand was holding a mouse. I then handed the mouse to someone (I never saw anyone) and they handed me a white bunny then a German Shepherd jumped up to get it and I heard "No" (not sure if I said it or someone else), and the German Shepherd was gone.

While this vision looks complicated on the surface, the interpretation is fairly straightforward and deals directly with your overall health and emotional stability. Seeing numerous domestic animals or pets in one place is often seen as a warning to take better care of yourself. Just as animals are often considered loyal companions who take care of us, so does this sign indicate a need to be better aware of your own health. The dogs, in particular, point toward mental and emotional well-being, as they are often associated with the presence of a person in your life who causes unnecessary stress and anxiety. Avoiding or removing this person from your life could drastically improve the quality of your daily existence and give you a renewed sense of inner peace.

A dog being eaten but still alive

I have a small Yorkie, 2lbs. She is my best friend. I am very protective over her. Had to leave her with people I don't know. No other choice in emergency. Not sure what the emergency was. I begged them to make sure to keep other animals away from her for her safety. Came back to get her. The whole time I worried after I left. Came back. She was laying on the floor being eaten by a 25 pound dog. All that was left was her neck bone and head and she was looking at me in fear. Still alive, eyes moving to see me. Really has bothered me, I felt sick for days. I had to walk away from my family a year ago. I spent a lot of time saving them back then.

Watching your beloved pet being overtaken by another large dog is symbolic of an upcoming tragedy you are likely to experience, most likely in relation to your family. While you may not be close to or on speaking terms with your family now, it seems your precious dog is symbolically representing something terrible happening to either them or you which requires you to meet with them as soon as you can. This vision gives no indication as to the outcome of such an event (whether it would inspire a reconciliation or not), but it does suggest that, in the time leading up to this occurrence, you may feel more tense or anxious than normal, perhaps owing to an underdeveloped sixth sense. You may want to be on the lookout for such feelings to prepare yourself, but it is also important to try and maintain a calm, peaceful place within yourself to escape to if things become too overwhelming.

Having a cow for a pet

I had a dream that I had a pet cow. I was at the beach with it. It laid on the sand, under an umbrella as I was enjoying the clear beach water. There were many people around admiring the cow, but nobody was afraid. I then walked the cow on a leash as if walking a dog.

Both the images of a pet cow and being by the sea have congruent meaning. A dream of petting a cow is a symbol of selfishness, you seem to be a very egocentric person. You may help others, but only after you have evaluated the potential benefit to yourself as well. Dreaming about being on the sea shore demonstrates your remorse of something mean that you may have done to another person, who does not deserve this treatment. You are probably worried about how to correct this situation and, luckily for you, the cow dream could mean improved personal relationships within your family and social environment.

A wolf protecting a pet from being chocked

A huge black wolf jumped over me two times while I was choking my dog and I got scared and stopped, went inside, shut the door and held and loved my dog.

This dream contains fairly ominous signs in regards to your love life and warns you to proceed with caution. The black wolf symbolically represents someone who is meddling in your personal affairs, particularly in your romantic interests. This can be seen in the vision as the creature jumps over you, which in real life may take the form of asking many questions and seeing how you respond to certain clues. In either case, trying to injure or hurt your pet suggests that you may have some negative experiences because of this invasion of privacy. This is likely to have a bad effect both on your stress levels and your relationship you currently have with someone special.

A pet fish flying in the air

I walked in my room and my pet fish was floating in the air, I was trying to catch it.

According to traditional dream interpretation, seeing fish floating in the air could have two possible meanings. A floating or flying fish you are trying to catch means you could soon be presented with a great opportunity or chance to gain material or financial rewards. At the same time, if you envisioned that you could not catch the fish in this dream, it could also serve as a warning that there are some unfavorable or even dangerous environmental conditions (such as mold or fire hazards) in existence inside your room or house which should be promptly addressed in order to avoid potential damage to your health.

Buying a little pet dog when it rains heavily

Dreamed that I purchased a very little black puppy dog and it was raining very heavy.

Buying a puppy usually indicates that someone you care about has been going behind your back and lying about it to your face. This person is deceitful and does not truly want what is best for you. Heavy rain on the day the purchase took place in this dream vision also suggests that not only is this situation likely to hurt you, but it may also negatively affect you in some way. Your so-called friend may have been spreading negative rumors or sabotaging your efforts to improve your situation.

Giving a pet calf to be slaughtered

My pet calf was skinned alive by a guy using an electric meat cutter. I was the one who had to carry my pet calf to the guy to be skinned. There was no blood and I woke up crying.

To dream of a calf indicates the persistence of immaturity and innocence. The calf could be symbolic of your lack of experience or the need to grow up and face your responsibilities. Getting the calf skinned alludes to sensitivity. You may be feeling vulnerable and emotional at the moment. Perhaps this is your mind's way of making you realize the importance of being thick-skinned in certain situations. In order to overcome real-world challenges, you need to let go of or at least suppress your childish ways.

Neighbor losing an entrusted dog

I dreamed that my neighbor lost my dog on a big busy avenue.

Seeing someone being responsible for, but losing your dog in a dream points to the possibility of hardships in your future. You may soon face threatening situations or troublesome circumstances over which you may have very little to no control. These could be long-lasting issues in your waking life with outcomes that will leave a lasting imprint on your psyche and make you want to re-evaluate your existing relationships with others.

Having issues with a misbehaving dog on the bus

In my dream I boarded a vehicle, as it was about moving, a pet of mine (a dog) followed the vehicle and I helped it climb up, everyone in the bus asked to let the dog go, as they were not comfortable. Out of love and pity I begged them to allow me, as I was going to control it, unfortunately the dog jumped off my hand running around. Then the driver told me I could no longer continue the journey with them, I was left in the middle of nowhere. When I asked how long it would take me to reach my destination, the driver said in one day. This dog also peed on me while in the vehicle, but in real life I don't have a dog.

Cars, trucks and other vehicles appearing in dreams are all considered symbolic of our journey through this life. In this case, your journey was cut short midway because of your traveling companion, a dog who does not sit still. This suggests that some aspect of your life may not be going as your original plan. Traveling with a dog is normally associated with expanding your group or friends, such as joining a new interest club or getting a new job. However, the dog peeing on you, in conjunction with being forced out of the vehicle, predicts getting into a major conflict with your newly acquired acquaintances. The circumstances of this conflict are unclear, but you may be more at fault for the disagreement than you are willing to admit to yourself.

Buying a tiger for a pet

One of my relatives is buying a baby tiger for me from market. Felt like I had a desire to make that tiger my pet. My relative who was buying was telling me he was making a good, cheap deal, getting the baby tiger for much lower price than it should be. Thank you.

Symbolically, tigers embody power and aggression. As such, your dream of wanting to have a baby tiger as a pet reveals your desire to control your temper. Perhaps you are currently undergoing a personal transformation as part of your aspiration of taking on a leadership position. As a leader, you need to be disciplined and train yourself not to give in to emotional outbursts. You do not want your ego to be inflated while you are just on your way up the ladder in this personal journey.

A pet dog killing another dog

As salam aleikum brother. I saw my pet dog biting a small black dog by his neck whining. I tried to make him stop from hurting the unknown dog, but he killed and ate the other dog. I was so hurt in my dream. I love animals and I feel that I failed to protect the unknown dog from harm. Please help. Also, I am from a very disturbed christian family who is always trying to harm me and my parents. They always hurt us emotionally that sometimes I find it very discouraging and difficult to concentrate on my salat. How could I help myself and my parents to be not affected by them?

Dogs in dreams represent loyalty and protection. They are typically associated with family and personal support systems. Your pet dog's action of biting, then eventually eating the other dog, suggests that clashes with your relatives may worsen in the the near future. The tension and disagreements may become so problematic that either your parents or your relatives would attempt to sever ties with each permanently. The devouring of the other dog does not bode well in terms of the outcome, however the compassion you exhibited in the dream predicts your pivotal role in bringing your family members together. One voice pushing for understanding and acceptance on both sides can make all the difference.

Finding a collie

I found a disheveled brown collie roaming at an abandoned train station. I called to it, it came immediately, so I took it home with me and I fed it. It turned out to be very sweet and friendly, so I kept it.

Unfortunately, seeing a stray or homeless dog in a dream bears negative meanings. Some misfortune may fall upon you, such as dire events or health issues. Since a collie is a working dog, adopting the dog in your vision could refer to unemployment or looming money problems and financial issues. Feeding the dog means you have to dip into your personal savings or rainy day fund to tide you over during the period of financial difficulty.

A talking pet monkey

I saw a pet monkey talking with me.

Pet monkeys are often thought to represent the fears which overpower us in waking life and therefore usually reflect some negative signs inhabiting our reality. However, walking with this monkey in your dream could predict finding a way to rationalize or overcome your doubts, possibly leading to happiness and peace of mind in the days to come..

Two pairs of the same dogs

I was petting my 2 dogs, when another pair of them walked through the doggy door, so I don't know which pair are my real dogs.

Dogs in dreams represent loyalty and protection. Petting the dogs in the dream alludes to your allegiance to your family or your company, whichever is a more salient concern to you at the moment. As such, not knowing which pair are your dogs probably means that you are questioning your loyalty. Perhaps you are unsure which direction or part of your waking life you need to prioritize. Maybe this vision is a question of balancing your personal and professional duties.

Having a puppy when no pets in reality

I dreamt about finally doing what I put off for so long and then out of nowhere my dream went to me laying down and a puppy comes to lick my face but not before I hear a squeaky door open to let the puppy in. I don't own a dog nor have I ever wanted one. What does my dream mean?

Dreaming about puppies has positive connotations. When you envisioned finally getting things done, you can expect that you would be successful in all your endeavors in the real world as well. Puppies generally represent good tidings. Even if you do not own a puppy, it signifies that anything you have planned or need to be done would happen without any major obstacles. You can only expect success and satisfaction in whatever project you want to undertake.

Losing and reuniting with a puppy

In my dream, a puppy swam to the bottom of the ocean to get the moon in the shape of a crescent which had fallen and then we put the moon back. After that my puppy disappeared and it was a bad night. The night after, the puppy came back and I slept with the puppy while petting it, so nothing would steal or hurt it.

The crescent moon in your vision is representative of a dream you hope comes true or a goal you have been working towards for some time. The notion that it was at the bottom of the ocean suggests it once seemed impossible for you to achieve, but a series of happy opportunities has brought the possibility back to life. The image of the puppy points toward a friend being the one who helps you achieve this, as dogs are often a symbol of loyalty and protection. This friend's current presence in your life or a possibility of meeting a new one could help you achieve your goals much quicker.

Walking and driving with dogs

Someone gave me a medium-sized light colored dog. I drove to the end of a dirt road and walked him on a leash. Then I had to ask for a ride back to my car. The dog jumped in the back and as I was getting in the front there was a small brown dog in my seat, they put him in the back so I could get in.

This dream has positive connotations. Light-colored dogs seen in dreams generally represent success and prosperity. Being gifted a dog portends good tidings in the near future. The vision of you walking with the dog has similar symbolic meaning of great accomplishments and triumphs coming your way while seeing you and the dog getting a ride could point towards the help you would get from your friends and companions in achieving what you desire. These people could be instrumental in helping you make your dreams come true.

A pet parrot on display

I just saw my beautiful cockatiel as a display. She was alive and appeared peaceful.

The symbolism of a cockatiel or cockatoo in the dream world has to do with acceptance. It means that you are probably not afraid to show the world your true colors. Perhaps you are the type of person who is very transparent in expressing your emotions. Your friends and family can usually tell your disposition just by observing your facial expressions and behavior. You are comfortable in your own skin, embracing all that you are, including your flaws.

Having a cat and a bat for pets

I had a dream that a very close friend gave me a pet cat and bat, they were playing with me and I loved them both, but then I had to leave where I was and I was trying to go back for the cat and bat, but then I was woken up by someone. I had this dream about a day ago and I am fixated on what it could have meant. I usually don't remember my dreams, but I do this one and it seemed like it was trying to tell me something, but I can't figure out what. Can you help?

Getting a cat and a bat as pets from a friend carries negative interpretations in a dream. The animals in your vision may be allusions to the terms "catty" and "batty", which points to a possible change in the dynamics with a close friend. Either you would be the petty one in the scenario or your friend may be the instigator of some major misunderstanding. Whatever the case, the cat alludes to childish issues and the bat refers to silly behavior. As such, whatever should come between you and your friend, it seems that those are superficial issues and problems which you can easily fix if you learn to control your emotions.

Pet dog disappearing in a swamp with snakes

My dog ran into the swamp and it was full of snakes, so I couldn't go after her and she went under and snakes everywhere and she never came back up. She means everything to me. She is my best friend and partner in life.

Dreaming of a swamp filled with snakes reflects how you view life. In this case, you are highly displeased with your current situation and have a poor outlook on what is to come. While you may not be in dire straights, nothing seems to excite you or hold your attention anymore, leading to a dull, boring existence. The one shining light in your life, your dog, represents all the good around you in reality, both the things you recognize, like the dog itself, and those you do not, such as the devotion of your family or your financial stability. As you might expect, watching your dog sink and disappear into this snake-filled swamp represents losing all of the most important people and things you currently hold dear due to your lack of appreciation. To salvage this situation, you would have to both truly believe and physically show how much you care for and value the life you have been given.

Evil duplicates of pets

I've had recurring dreams of evil pet duplicates since I was young. Not necessarily every night, but often enough that I remember. Firstly when I was little, I had dreams about my cat having an evil twin that was larger, had very big eyes and just looked wrong. And that duplicate dream happened a lot, often being that the duplicate was attacking my sister, mother and stepdad. And now, I have dreams of my ferrets having duplicates and I have to decipher who's the real ferrets, sometimes evil, sometimes not.

Pets in dreams are associated with loyalty and civility. Generally, this means that you make a point of being nice and polite in most social situations, even at home, in the waking world. As such, the recurring dreams of pet duplicates or evil pet doppelgangers may be representations of your rebellious and temperamental side. No matter how much you try to be good, sometimes you cannot help disobeying your parents or speaking rudely to them. In addition, pets also represent your need to be nurtured and loved. In this case, the evil pets could be symbolic of your resentment and frustration whenever you feel neglected or overlooked. Either way, this type of vision may recur whenever you are tempted to not play nice.

Protecting a dog from a creature

Protecting my dog in my old house from a threatening mythical creature.

Protecting your dog from a menacing mythical creature reflects your tendency to help others in waking life. Just as your dog relies on you for love and care in reality, so does this vision suggest there are others, such as friends, family members or co-workers, who heavily rely on you for protection, advice or support. In essence, this vision is a direct manifestation of these positive qualities you possess.

A monkey killing a cat

I was walking in a field with my cat and a monkey came out of a dead tree and kidnapped my cat. The monkey dressed my cat in a plain white costume with red trim and put her on a stage. Each day the monkey cut off one of her toes. After several days on stage, my cat died.

Monkeys are often thought to be the manifestation of immature or tactless behavior, so dreaming that a monkey kidnaps your cat and tortures it to death could represent someone in your life whose disrespectful words and actions could become much more devious with time. In a sense, your subconscious is considering or worrying about what this individual might do without any checks to their behavior. The dead tree from which the monkey came could represent being negatively affected by this yourself, suggesting that the person in question is close to you, either a friend or family member. You would need to decide if you should step in and say something yourself or wait and see if someone with more power and authority would discipline this individual.

Scanning the dog at a checkout

I brought my dog to the grocery store and I scanned her at the self checkout and sent her down the conveyor belt towards the bagging area.

Shopping together with your dog and then sending her down the conveyor belt at checkout is a more personal interpretation of throwing the baby out with the bath water in the dream world. Shopping suggests you are trying to improve some aspects of your life while getting rid of bad habits or traits that have held you back in the past. However, pets tend to represent the best in us, so seeing the dog moving away from you could be a warning that, by giving up something bad, you may also be losing something good. You may need to carefully evaluate how you are reshaping your life.

A dog pooping

My black dog, a Labrador, is running around in my kitchen and struggling, so I let her outside where she does the biggest poop... almost as big as she is! Then she is running and bouncing around happy. Then curls up and falls soundly asleep.

Dogs represent loyalty and security which is why they are oftentimes associated with family. In the context of your dream, however, the amount of dog feces or poop suggests cleaning up after a mess made by a loved one. You may have to take control of the situation in order to avoid further complications. Alternatively, this vision could also symbolize a loss of control as a result of your desire to express yourself. Perhaps you have been reigning in your emotions for too long that being able to get them off your chest would give you catharsis.

Killing cats with a pitchfork

So what I remember is that I had stabbed my cats with a pitchfork, they wouldn't die, so I had to break their necks by hand. I woke up sick to my stomach crying and about to throw up. It's 40 minutes later and I, still feel sick and am crying uncontrollably. I am an animal lover and don't understand why I would dream something so horrible. Please help me.

Cats usually symbolize a carefree attitude, creativity and a free-spirited nature. In contrast, the pitchfork represents focus and responsibility. Perhaps you are at a point in your life where you may need to leave your immature and reckless side behind and be more accountable for your future. The reluctance and horror you felt because of stabbing the cats to death is a reflection of your own reservations of letting go or perhaps suppressing a big part of your personality. There could be a big event about to happen that would inevitably push you into transforming yourself.

Being concerned about dog's safety

I was at a desk and I got up, but my dog was not following me. I saw him on a tall platform with a group of men that were trying to keep my dog away from me. This dream was in the daytime but I was afraid that the men would take my dog away from me and harm him because I had a sick sense about the men, I woke up feeling afraid.

Dogs, because of their loyalty and protective instincts, often represent family and loved ones in the dream world. Hence, the men trying to take your dog away from you could symbolize real-world threats to certain members of your family. Perhaps you have a relative or close friend who is getting involved with the wrong kind of crowd and you fear for his or her well-being. There could also be individuals or personalities putting a wedge between you and a loved one by entertaining certain destructive ideas in their head. You may need to watch out for suspicious characters trying to create conflict and discord in your household.

Losing or killing a pet dog

In a lot of my dreams, I have a dog and somehow, by the end of the dream, I end up losing the dog or accidentally killing it. I don't have a pet dog in real life.

Since dogs are associated with protection and loyalty, they often symbolize family and loved ones when dreaming. In the context of your dream, losing the dog or killing the dog likely represents the disintegration of family ties. Since the incident of losing or killing the dog was not intentional, it means the damage to your relationship with a loved one could be an indirect result of your negligence. This negligence may be a failure to prioritize your friends or family, or perhaps you tend to make decisions that are against their interest or words of advice.

Finding a missing cat

I am a female and my cat has been missing since May 11th. That night, I dreamed of my missing cat. I opened the door and she was huddled and looked scared when I opened the door. I picked her up and she was wet. Then, after a few minutes in my arms, she started to feel better and wanted to play. While we were playing, it started to rain inside the room we were in.

Seeing a wet cat in your dream likely means that you are reaching your boiling point or your limit. You could be holding back tremendous amounts of anger, sadness and frustration which may come flooding out through an emotional breakdown. The missing cat may have added to your piling sources of stress in the waking world. This burst of emotion could be directed at someone who may disappoint or betray you. Perhaps an individual may fail to follow your instructions or neglect your needs when you are at your lowest point. In addition, the rain inside your room denotes sorrow. All your duties and responsibilities, made worse by negligent colleagues, could take their toll on you. Perhaps in trying to juggle so many things, you would end up losing the optimistic and hopeful part of yourself. Alternatively, finding the cat may mean losing a beloved and devoted friend. There is a possibility that you would find freedom and self-sufficiency, but at the risk of alienating a trusted confidante.

A dead pet dog attacking

My dog has passed away but in my dream he was attacking me, and I was playing on my phone (acting like it wasn't happening). He was acting really crazy and I had bites and blood all over me. My husband got my dog away from me. In reality my husband woke me up.

Seeing your cherished pet dog coming back from the dead is often interpreted as a warning in the world of dreams. It suggests that you tend to ask for help with certain issues in your life but forget to thank or repay those who help you. You may even decide not to lend them a hand when they need it. This could come back to bite you in the rear, as seen in the image of your dog attacking you in the vision, because being labeled as ungrateful could lead to others deciding not to help you in the future.

A pet fox biting on the hand

Hello, I had a long dream where I was in an angry mood at my university party. I'm going to cut it short, a guy came to me with a pet fox. This fox made my mood better and I asked if I could pet her. He said yes and I petted her for a while but she started to bite my hand. She had really sharp teeth and my hand bled for a while but I did not take out my hand out of her mouth. After a while this fox turned into a mesmerizing woman while my hand still bled. I'm a guy and thank you.

The school setting of this vision suggests you are under some stress in reality. Your poor mood may also be a reflection of this situation, showing how greatly you are affected. The source of your stress could be related to your interactions with an individual or a small group that you consider yourself to be in competition with. The image of the fox reveals the presence of competitors or enemies who have plans to attack your reputation or legitimacy. You may not be sure exactly what they have in mind or how to counter their efforts. Seeing the fox turn into a beautiful woman, then, can be interpreted as a sign that they would try to deceive you by creating uncertainty or making something appear better than what it is. It would be wise to go canny and question everything you receive or are exposed to.

A pet snake eating a dog

Dreamt of a snake that was little, it was a pet. Then I couldn't find it, looked for it everywhere. Next thing you know I found it eating my dog like an anaconda, then woke up.

Dreaming of a pet snake means you are enabling someone close to you into becoming a hard-headed and rebellious personality. This individual's destructive habits and careless disregard for the consequences of bad behavior could end up hurting a loved one or a family member, symbolized by the dog which was attacked in your dream vision. The snake may even be a metaphor for your own rebellious streak. In fact, your thoughtless actions could drag your family members in the mess you managed to create for yourself.

A dog and a crocodile

I am female. I dreamed of my deceased dog (I put her down in 2014). There were two dreams, in one she had fallen through the slats on a deck and was hanging by her neck , I think she was still alive. In the other dream she was lying on the ground, not sure if she was alive or not. A crocodile had her by the paw and she had a dead mouse either in her other paw or in her mouth. I don't recall taking any action in either dream, just being horrified at the sight of both and then waking up.

Dogs in dreams generally represent friends and family because they are seen as loving and loyal companions. In your case, this recurring dream of your deceased dog could reveal your concerns about the loyalty of your current group of friends or even family members. Your dog's injuries may symbolize weakening bonds or brewing problems between you and a close friend or sibling. In the first dream, the nature of your dog's suffering could mean that you are worried about someone's well-being. Someone close to you may be conflicted and needs your help to get back on track. Meanwhile, the crocodile points to a bad influence or a manipulative individual who may be trying to ruin your relationship with your loved ones by pushing them into making bad decisions. Perhaps this devious person would cause all your problems and you are feeling helpless about the situation. It is possible that your subconscious is encouraging you to take action, otherwise you could lose someone you love.
